Rush Limbaugh did something he always (rightfully) accuses the libs of doing - injecting race into an argument.

I don't follow the NFL enough to know whether McNabb is any good or not, but that's beside the point, as is his race.

Rush committed a cardinal sin by injecting politics into sports. We didn't like it when Dennis Miller was injecting left-wing remarks when he was a football commentator (prior to Miller doing a 360 degree Arianna Huffington-like turn to the conservative side of the spectrum)...

Now, does that mean this story is worthy of headlines night and day? Hardly. But I guess it does tell you something about how many legs this "leak" story has, when something this trivial immediately pushes it off the front page.

Rush was arguing that OTHERS had previously injected race into the argument and thus overrated McNabb.

I thought I was the only one with a memory that long!!! Seemed like EVERYONE had forgotten his SNL days.

He is trying to speak truth to power.

Then you don't know if it is beside the point or not.

Yeah, you got to watch those 360 degree turns, you just might end up going the same way you started.
